Need Support Yeelight strip 1S versus Plus

YEELIGHT Lightstrip (Color)
#1

I used the website and it shows to buy from Amazon (US). I was looking for the strip that is Razer chroma compatible but it only shows one type of strip everywhere I go(US). I then bought the Plus but it doesnt connect to the Chroma software like my 1S bulb does. Will the Plus be compatible in the future since I cant seem to find the 1S light strip? Your website keeps sending me to amazon to the light strip plus. I saw some other people in the US are having the same problem amazon is only selling the Plus. I dont mind waiting if there is an update to make plus compatible if not I need to return it and get another brand since I cant get the 1S

Thank you,

The 1s is the ‘plus’ model, should work with the latest firmware

I was told this by Yeelight support

"Hi,

Sorry, 1S doesn’t have US version now." The Plus has a different part number than the 1S aswell.

#4

Thats very odd. There is no ‘China’ version. The ‘China’ version is just the US verison as they use the same socket. Do you have the model numbers there?

YLDD04YL Plus then YLDD05YL the 1S

#6

It the 1s not the actual strip & the ‘plus’ is the extra 1M strips you can add?

#7

No, they are both part numbers for the whole set up

the YLDD05YL is the version that came with homekit support out the box

Is the Aurora Lightstrip Plus the same product as 1S?

There is a very small difference, but many won’t see it directly.
If I’m correct is the Yeelight Strip Plus sold in many international countries and the Yeelight Strip 1S for China / Asia.
The specfications are the same and you can connect both of them to your Yeelight or Xiaomi Home app. The firmware is also the same for both devices.

Here it comes:
When you connect them to your Yeelight app, you can connect the Plus (yeelink.light.strip6) to Yeelights own build-in or wireless light switch.
This option is not available on the 1s (yeelink.light.strip2). You can’t connect that lightstrip to a remote control or switch.

I hoped that I helped you out a bit with your choices. Please let me know if you have any questions.

p.s. the manufacturing date of my Plus was: 01/2020 and the 1S: 12/2020
